Last night Jarom's Aunt Eja along with several of her daughters, a grand daughter, and Jarom's grandmother were in a serious car accident. They rolled over on the freeway on their way to Salt Lake City. Stacey, Carlee and Grandma (nearly 91 years old, this lady is amazing) walked away with minimal injuries (just some scratches and bruises), Tricia has a badly broken ankle, we are not clear on Jennifer's injuries at this time, but they are not life threatening, and Aunt Eja seems to be the one to have taken the brunt of things.

Eja's liver has a portion that was torn off causing some internal bleeding, her kidneys show some damage as well as her spleen. Both of her lungs were punctured and several ribs broken, as well as a compression fracture in her lumbar spine. They have induced a coma until approximately Saturday afternoon or evening to aid with healing.

It sounds like Eja has a tough road ahead of her and we pray for a quick and full recovery. Our thoughts are with the Allens this day.

Let me know if I can do anything, where are they? I hope she is at either the U or IMC then she will get the best care. If you need a place to hang in Utah you are more than welcome. I will send blessings and hope for a speedy recovery.
